1 WASSCE / WAEC BASIC ELECTRICITY/ APPLIED ELECTRICITY Visit for WASSCE / WAEC syllabus on different subjects and more great stuff to help you ace the WASSCE in flying colours. PREAMBLE This examination syllabus has been evolved from the Senior Secondary School Electricity curriculum. It is designed to test candidates knowledge and understanding of electrical and electronic principles, maintenance and repair of domestic and industrial equipment and safe working procedures. The examination syllabus does not replace the curriculum. OBJECTIVES The objective of the syllabus is to test candidates: (1) Knowledge and understanding of the basic concepts and principles of Basic Electricity/Applied Electricity; (2) Ability to use tools and equipment in the maintenance and repair of electrical/electronic devices; (3) Understanding of the principle of operation and the application of simple electrical/electronic devices; (4) Understanding of safe working procedures and safety precautions in domestic and industrial installation. EXAMINATION SCHEME There will be three papers Papers 1, 2 and 3 all of which must be taken. Papers 1 and 2 will be a composite paper to be taken at one sitting. PAPER 1 - Will consist of fifty multiple-choice objective questions to be answered 1 hour for 50 marks. PAPER 2 - Will be made up of three sections, Sections A, B and C and will consist of ten short-answer questions drawn from Sections I, II and III of the syllabus. Candidates will be required to answer a total of five questions in 1 hour for a total of 50 marks as follows: SECTION A - Will consist of four questions out of which candidates will answer three. SECTION B - Will consist of three questions out of which candidates will be required to answer two.
2 SECTION C - Will consist of three questions out of which candidates will be required to answer two.
3 All candidates will be required to answer questions from Section A and from either Section B or Section C, (but not from both sections). PAPER 3 - Will be a practical paper of two experiments both of which are to be carried out by candidates within 3 hours for 100 marks. DETAILED SYLLABUS SECTION I TOPIC 1.
